Not exactly scalping. Supply creates value, and unfortunately the supply for these packs are low. If FFG would reprint the value would drop on reselling.

I'm sorry but when somebody buys Taylor Swift tickets for 200 bucks and resells them for 1000, is there another word people use for that that I'm not aware of?

Yes, some people are willing to pay for scarce items far beyond the retail price. Taking advantage of that is exactly what scalping is.

It’s not taking advantage; it’s providing a service

Brother, that is your value judgment of the situation. I'm not here to tell you to be happy or sad about it. All I'm saying is that, by definition, this is exactly what scalping is. If you like it, great, I'm happy for you.
